Selling a like new 2 stage Ranco. Only used a few times for my fermentation chamber. -$70 with free shipping

Getting out of the brewing hobby and selling off my lightly used 2 stage Ranco temp controller. $100 with free shipping. Any questions let me know.

Yes it is. Unfortunately is for local pick up only.

I am unfortunately getting out of the brewing hobby so I am selling off all of my stuff. I have only brewed about a total of 10 batches on this equipment, so everything is still in really good condition. Let me know if you need any additional information or pictures on any item. ***All items...

Interesting take on it. I did use Jamil's yeast calculator and I hit the numbers that it was telling me to do. I have a 5000 ml flask and did around a 2.5 L starter on a stir plate at room temp. I let it ferment out for about 48 hours and then I put it in my fridge for a day to drop the...

Not enough as I would like. Im probably averaging 3-4 4 gallon batches a year. You know its the whole family and kids thing.

The flavor was pretty good although I will most likely change the recipe for next time I brew it. My goal was to try to get something close to Death and Taxes by Moonlight Brewing and this one definitely missed the mark. Your right about the bottling, those were my thoughts exactly. I could...

Well said. I totally agree.

On second thought, I think I will keep it since it is my first lager. I think just going through the lagering process in itself will be a great learning experience for next time. Thanks for everyones help!

Just checked the gravity and its still at 1.020. Debating if I should still put all the time into it to lager and keg or if I should cut my losses and dump it and try again next time. Ill be brewing a dry stout in two weeks.

Yea, your right. Too much specialty malts. Should have kept it closer to 10%. Ill check the gravity in the next few days and ill just keg it up. Thanks.

Ok so it looks like there is still some air lock activity about once every 5-7 minutes. So ill just keep it at 60 and forget about it for a few weeks and then recheck the gravity then. Fingers crossed.

I have heard something about this as well, that really it only takes around 20-30 mins or so to actually have full starch conversion. If that is true then alot of my starches converted at this higher mash temp. Also, since I made my starter a few days in advance I made a big enough starter...

For a 4 gallon batch 3 lbs 8.0 oz Pilsner (44.1 %) 3 lbs 3.0 oz Munich I (40.2 %) 8.0 oz Coffee Malt (6.3 %) 5.0 oz Chocolate Malt (3.9 %) 4.0 oz Caramel/Crystal Malt - 40L (3.1 %) 3.0 oz Carafa II (2.4 %) Target mash temp was 154. When I doughed in my mash temp was 160 but I...

I just fermented my first lager (schwarzbier). I was shooting for a OG of 1.051 but over shot my gravity to 1.058 because I just started milling my own grain. I made a 2.5 L starter and let it ferment out and decanted using WLP 830 German lager yeast. I have the carboy temperature controlled...

Ill wait till they add a second bulkhead.

Thanks for the quick response.

Im making a starter for my first lager and was going to let it ferment out and decant. I will be pitching it into 50 F wort. Im not sure if I should let the starter come up to room temp and pitch or keep it around 50ish and pitch.
